Episode 1 Martial Arts Master Chapter 15 The Demeanor of a Martial Arts Master
The dwarf was unable to refute at once, gasping and shouting: "You will die! I swear! Waiting to bear the wrath of the entire dwarf clan!"
"It's even more childish to call someone else if you can't win."
The foot that stepped on the dwarf's face seemed to be filled with lead water and was extremely heavy. Even if he struggled desperately, he could not move. He said loudly: "Then tell me what you want to do!"
Tyreseer said: "Are we going to kill them all?"
At this time, several people had the idea of escape.
Shen Zhimo moved his feet away and said with a serious expression: "Simon, I admire your fearless spirit in the face of death threats. You are a true knight and have won my respect. You can leave now.
.”
Everyone was stunned. Just now, he acted like a cold-faced killer, but now he immediately became like a gentle gentleman, speaking better than anyone else. Simon could hardly believe his ears: "What? You don't kill me? You because I am
To show respect as a knight?”
Shen Zhimo didn't look like he was joking and said: "Of course, I admire your knightly honor of disregarding life and death. You let me see a spirit that is different from ordinary people."
Simon had many thoughts going back and forth in his mind, and he thought in confusion: "It would be ridiculous to play the lord's trick of recruiting knights again. It would be ridiculous to think that the knight would be grateful and devoted to him for the rest of his life. But... everyone is watching.
I have to say, if I turn around and leave, I'm afraid there will be no good end..." The words I spoke in the face of death were heroic and generous enough at that time, but once it passed, I lost my temper. Everyone is afraid of death, and the knight is no exception.
At this moment, normal people's thoughts came back to their minds: "It doesn't matter if I die like this, but my wife and children at home..."
Shen Zhimo continued to smile: "Mr. Simon, can I buy you a drink?"
Simon sighed in his heart and finally responded: "Okay, Mr. Saga, your invitation is my honor." This was a disguised surrender to Shen Zhimo. Just for a moment, the black-haired young man's eyes flashed with a ferocious light,
If I don't follow the steps he gave me and fall down, I'm afraid the end will be ugly. Back then, I upheld the spirit of chivalry and was willing to sacrifice my life for the territory of the empire. In the end, I was framed by the Holy See and expelled from the capital. That kind of boundless honor is still there.
What are you going to do?
Shen Zhimo's face suddenly relaxed and he said with a smile: "Mr. Simon, you will see my sincerity." The full strength of the Nine Yin White Bone Claw in his hand was slowly released. If Simon continued to be ignorant of lifting, his
The fingers will make five more bloody holes appear in Simon's head.
The atmosphere changed so quickly that some members of the mercenary group who had no time to change their minds were stunned. Everyone followed Simon's lead. Since his attitude had softened, they naturally put down their hostile emotions temporarily and waited to see what happened. However, the hand holding the handle of the knife was not loose.
Come on, this Saga can kill people just by talking and laughing. It is really too scary, so we have to stay vigilant.
Others thought: "It looks like we can really defeat the deep-water crocodiles and completely occupy the pier."
Brother Tang En came in to clean the floor, set the table, and put a few bottles of low-quality ale on it. Shen Zhimo looked like he was offering hospitality - even though there was nothing else but ale. Naturally, the dwarves were treated accordingly, and the chilling atmosphere from before
It was swept away and everyone was smiling.
Simon pulled up the thief Aubrey, and when he pulled it, he didn't move at all. The thief's knees were still bent as they were, and he was extremely embarrassed and uncomfortable. He smiled bitterly at Simon and said: "I don't know what happened, these legs are straight.
If I can’t get up, I’ll be numb to death.”
Simon didn't quite believe it, so he pulled him and said, "You were fine just now. You are not paralyzed or cramped. Try again."
The thief suppressed his blush and couldn't stand up. He collapsed on the ground and said: "The dagger touched this place just now. It didn't hurt, it was just a little numb, but now I basically feel nothing."
Only then did Simon realize that Shen Zhimo had used the weird trick he used to remove his joints last time. He thought that this man must be able to use witchcraft, so he didn't dare to offend him and said, "Mr. Saga, can you solve Aubrey's problem?
Something doesn't look right about him."
If it were in the past, Shen Zhimo only had to tap Aubrey on the shoulder, and the internal energy would be channeled to break through the blocked acupuncture points. Now, without such deep internal energy, Shen Zhimo said, "He may have been running too fast just now and twisted his joints.
I just happen to know a kind of healing technique that can solve his pain." I pushed Aubrey's uterus to remove the blood, slow down the infuriating energy, and after half a stick of incense, Aubrey slowly sat up holding the table.
"Mr. Saga, you are a true friend of our mercenary group." Simon did not forget to glance at the powerful Terry Hill, carefully looking for the right words: "So, how should we proceed tomorrow night? Captain Solomon
I said that after taking over the dock, the market will be your territory."
"Yes, the market will be my territory, you don't have to worry about that." After the previous hypocrisy, Shen Zhimo immediately changed back to an indifferent attitude and said, "In fact, I just heard about deep-water crocodiles for the first time a few days ago.
Please give me an analysis of their names and their abilities and deeds, so that you can know yourself and your enemy and be victorious in every battle."
Simon even wanted to die. He had seen stupid people, but he had never seen such impulsive and ignorant people. He dared to go to the dock and run wild without knowing anything? He had already cursed Solomon and Shen Zhimo bloody, but in this situation
Unable to retreat, he calmed down and said: "Deepwater crocodiles are an extremely violent group, which can be seen from their name. First, let's take a look at the ground at the dock. There are four
There are three piers, located in the southeast and west of Broken Bay. Among them, the Cancer Pier is in the middle. The water here is the deepest, the sea is wide, the waves are calm, and there are no reefs. It can completely berth giant sailing ships weighing more than a thousand tons, from the Samur continent.
Cargo ships often deliver goods here, and the cargo throughput is huge, accounting for 90% of the Kuzeskal Port. Deep-water crocodiles occupy the Cancer Pier."
Shen Zhimo nodded and said, "Well, it seems to be a big piece of fat. You can continue talking." He randomly summoned two young apprentices and asked them to buy wine. Aubrey's face was red and white, and he just pretended not to see it.
"Every day, more than a hundred cargo ships and passenger ships are berthed, most of which are cargo ships, with spices, cloth, weapons, armor, grain, fruits, ores, oil, etc., etc., there are many types, deep-water crocodiles only need to be in every
By charging only 1% of the fee for each piece of goods, the world has become rich. There are about 180 of them, and each one of them is very powerful. Most of them are retired navy soldiers with great organizational skills and advanced weapons and equipment.
, there are also powerful magicians and warriors among them. Our mercenary group has fought with them several times and lost. The most recent time was three years ago, when fourteen of us died. From then on, Captain Solomon ordered a thorough
Quit the fight for Cancer Pier.".
"In other words, they have more people than you, their swords are stronger than yours, and their fists are harder than yours?"
"Yes, Mr. Saga." Simon said: "They even support mid-level magicians, warriors who can use fighting spirit, and a large number of savage orcs. The leader of the deep-water crocodiles is called Bernie, who was once a colonel in the legion. , killed several nobles in the capital, and was later wanted by the gendarmes. He fled to the port and gathered a group of people to form a gang. The gendarmes could not control the place. He also bribed the lord with a large sum of money, so nothing was done, and he was allowed to run rampant. .”
Shen Zhimo smiled and said: "What you Tiger Mercenary Group does is not the same thing, it's just not as good as them."
Simon's face turned red: "Pretty much, the port is mostly a gathering place for fugitives, robbers, thieves and homeless people, as well as the tauren and orcs of the Samur continent. It has become a de facto neutral area. The lord is just With a reputation, whoever has more power will be easier to talk to, so we formed a group."
Shen Zhimo's expression was very strange: "So you are all fugitives who were sent here? Hehe, you are really a bully and a bully." There was a strong sense of sarcasm in his words.
These words brought back memories in Simon's mind, and he spat and said: "Those damn temple priests who only know how to point fingers and are stupider than pigs who only eat and don't work! They are the ones who made me have no place in the capital, so I had to leave my hometown. I I admit that I gave up the honor of knighthood, but I am still a true knight! They have kicked me out to eradicate selfishness, and one day I will go back."
"Okay, I like being ambitious. But first, let's talk about what kind of person that colonel is and why he can lead the entire dock?"
Aubrey interjected: "Deepwater crocodiles have been entrenched in Cancer Pier for ten years. No one can touch their status. It is not an accident. I once assassinated Bernie under the order of Captain Solomon, but it failed. I was at that time He lurked in his house for three whole days, looking for the most suitable moment to strike. Unfortunately, Bernie is a terrifying warrior. In the end, I relied on Shadow Step to escape. He taught me a lesson." He lifted up his leather armor and said, A large scar from the chest to the lower abdomen appeared in front of me, which was shocking.
Simon said: "Bernie relied entirely on his own authority to rule the gang of lawless criminals. Without him, Deep Water Crocodile would be nothing."
Shen Zhimo became interested: "So, that damn retired colonel is very strong? How strong is he?"
"In the battle for the pier three years ago, Bernie killed ten of us with a spear. He used to be a cavalryman, and he liked to use spears the most. He could also emit fighting spirit, and even wearing armor was useless."
"According to you, fourteen of you have died, and ten of them were killed by him. So this man is really capable. Simon, how do you think I compare with him?"
Simon muttered: "In a duel under fair circumstances, he should not be able to defeat you, but don't forget that he is not fighting the deep-water crocodile alone.".
